Frankfurt-based DJ and producer Robert Dietz launches his and Hendrik Schneider's label Truth Be Told with his own Radio Raheem EP, initiating the label's mission to provide an alternative to the current electronic music world. Truth Be Told boasts music with character, always aiming for originality and creativity. Dietz not only focuses on exposing other artists; he continues to make new music of his own in his own way and here returns to his notably fresh house grooves. Dietz features Eddie Fowlkes and Markus Fix on this EP, taking a proud step into the heart of the label's A&R process.

Robert Dietz joins Cadenza for the second time with the Slinger EP. Eclipsing the A-side is the percussion-heavy show-stopper "Pandemic." Infused with sheer funk and relentless groove, "Pandemic" screams of sweat-drenched dancefloors, grinding movement and unstoppable force. On the flip, "Red Tops" is an adrenaline-pumped fairground ride; exhilarating, dangerous and manic, the smacking hand claps, jazzy cymbal crashes and spiralling drum rolls make way for a lush and rolling b-line with speeding hats.

Robert Dietz's "Soup Opera" is a stand-up bass burner that puts house sounds to techno purposes; it's a wolf in sheep's clothing, a rainstorm that leaves you drenched. Raw, Chicago hi-hats lash out against a rising/falling bass line as mid-range drones and fluttering tones keep frothing higher and higher. The way he mans the filters feels more like sculpture than music, carving away the bass to create a dizzying sense of floating in space, until gravity comes crashing down again.

"Ain't no stopping us now. Even if you might feel that the release pressure is on, we just cannot help to put out these gems (at least, we think that's what they are). What you hold in your hands (or on your laptop) is neo-house of the finest order. Rhein-Main kid Robert Dietz (Cécille, Be Chosen etc.) was so kind to share his definition of h-muzik with us. To put it in a nutshell: 'Forward Snipping' slices and cuts some nice vocal bits in a true ear candy way. Even my brother gets goose bumps. 'Witness' sounds like a lost K.O.T. track. 'Faber Mix' is a disc jockey tool that brings you from A to B or even Z. And please, always keep Paul 'Trouble' Anderson in mind: A house is where you live in and a garage is where you park your car.
